An Elementary Course on Partial Differential Equations

Description

Partial differential equations are a vital part of any course in pure or applied mathematics. This book will be invaluable to anyone looking for a lucid but comprehensive introduction to PDEs. Designed to strike a balance between theory and practical problems, it covers all major methods as well as their historical backgrounds, theoretical rigour, and geometric significance. The book is divided into three parts. It starts with basic topics like ordinary differential equations, multivariable calculus, and geometry. This is followed…
